I've had it about a year (I forget...), and it was 6" when I got it. It'll get bigger, I assure you! -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian. |

The Shedd Aqua in Chi. has about a 12-14" one though and I imagine that it is full grown and very old. I think its almost as wide as it is long. Very large tank also, prolly 500g's +. |
